Why would you want a compiler (or /usr/include or /usr/lib/lib*.a)
on a production machine.
Doing builds on your test machine is a fine and lovely way
to do it. If you don't have a test machine, well then, your
"production machine" isn't really production, it's just a test
machine that it would suck to screw up.
I build on fast machines and run firewalls on slow machines.
My firewall is a soekris, so if I *need* to test on that
hardware, I can swap my "production CF" for the "test CF"
and, if it works, designate it the production one. key is
that I can go back to -working if I need.
